Kitchen Remodeling in Union City, CA

Each service below has its own page, and several typically run as one job:

Nobody hesitates over a tile sample. They hesitate because a large sum is about to leave their account.

Here is what HQ Kitchen Remodel puts against that concern:

• 360 reviews from homeowners who have used us.
• 350+ projects completed since 2015.
• Licensed and insured, working to a scope written before demolition.
• One named contact across the entire build.

Changes are documented, priced, and approved before they get built. We are equally clear about the slow weeks, such as the wait while a fabricator cuts your countertop.

Union City was formed in 1959 when Alvarado and Decoto joined, and the housing that followed went up largely through the 1960s. Those homes share a pattern.

The kitchen is usually a closed galley, separated from the dining room by a wall that may or may not be carrying load. That question decides your budget more than any finish. If it is bearing, the opening needs a properly sized beam and posts, and that means engineering and inspection.

Behind the plaster we routinely find undersized panels with no room for modern circuits, cast iron waste lines that complicate moving a sink, and original hardwood running beneath the old cabinet runs.

Removing a wall is the request we field most, so here is what sits behind it:

• Load check first. We establish whether the wall carries roof or floor above.
• Engineered beam sized for the span, with posts carrying down to the foundation.
• Rerouted services, since walls frequently hold plumbing vents and circuits.
• Inspection at rough framing, before any drywall closes the opening.
• Ceiling repair across the old wall line, which is often underestimated.
• Flooring infill where the wall footprint leaves a gap in the finish.

Each element is priced in the original scope wherever possible, and anything discovered later is a written change order.
